OpenAPI Specification

openapi: 3.2.0
info:
  title: Bezal Public Categories API
  description: 'Search Bezal''s local business directory, view public business profiles, and send

    service requests to businesses.


    ## Authentication

    Pass your API key in the Authorization header (or in X-API-Key):

    ```

    Authorization: Bearer bzl_your_key_here

    ```

    Read endpoints (search, business details, categories, health, this spec) work without a key

    and are limited per IP. Write endpoints (requests) require a valid API key.

    Get a key at https://bezal.ai/developers/keys.


    ## What a business record contains

    Every business record has the same public shape. Contact details depend on the provider''s

    Bezal plan:

    - Always: id, name, category, city, state, avg_rating, review_count, tier, quote_request_url

    - Pro, Business and Premium plans: phone, website, address, zip, hours, photos, lat, lng

    - Business and Premium plans: description

    - Free and unclaimed listings: upgrade_note


    quote_request_url is the business''s public Bezal profile, where a person can send a request.


    ## Rate limiting

    Each key has a daily request limit, and anonymous callers have a daily limit per IP.

    When a limit is exceeded, the API returns 429.'
